Fabric Flowers.

My patience is on a short leash, so these lovely fabric flowers are most likely outside my realm of sanity. But wouldn’t it be lovely to make a dozen or so and turn them into pins for friends on Valentine’s Day? I think so. (For those of you braver than I, there’s a great tutorial to lead the way.)
